In addition, if you're editing in a list (bulleted or numbered), in the Windows client, Tab will indent, and Shift+Tab will outdent. If you're not in a list, then Tab will just insert five spaces before the current cursor location. Fine-tune the formatting of the bullets you add to Word 2011 for Mac documents. To do so, just head to the Ribbon in Office 2011 for Mac. First, put the insertion cursor within a bullet level in your document.
